International Organization for Migration placed the number of Mongolians in the British capital at 5,000 to 7,000, followed by the Mongolian community of Manchester with 400 to 500 members. Newcastle upon Tyne was estimated to be home to 100 Mongolians, whilst between 60 and 70 were reported as residing in Leicester and 50 to 60 in Bradford. The International Organization for Migration mapping exercise also found evidence of a number of Mongolians also residing in Brighton, Liverpool, Milton Keynes, Nottingham and the university towns of Cambridge, Oxford, Dundee and Cardiff. Culture and community The International Organization for Migration's 2009 mapping exercise of Mongolians in the UK reported that there were no Mongolian-language newspapers, magazines or radio stations based in the UK, and that most Mongolians who wish to access news from their homeland do so via the internet, including by watching Mongolian television online. To reflect the rapid increase of the size of the UK's Mongolian community, numerous community groups have been set up in hope of bringing Mongolians in the UK together as well as acting as a helpful aid in adjusting to the British lifestyle. An annual Mongolian "Naadam" takes place every July in Islington's Highbury Fields, the same time as a much larger similar festival takes place in the Mongolian capital, Ulaanbaatar. Also known as the Mongolia Charity Rally, the event is attended by Mongolians from across the country who come together and enjoy wrestling, archery, food and traditional music. In 2019 a Mongolian supported charity drive and race was held to deliver gifts to children who are victims of domestic or neglect in the outskirts of Ulaanbaatar. £850 was raised at the event. Expat network InterNations also hosts regular events in various cities around the UK where Mongolian expats can meet face-to-face and socialize. Also there's a Mongolian Christian community in the UK based in London, Manchester, Nottingham and Liverpool (www.ukmcf.com) These young communities organise charity outreaches, evangelic events and aid vulnerable people both in UK and Mongolia.
